Cool Stuff About Cromwell:

The Cromwell soft opened in April 2014.

Cromwell History

The Cromwell is the most recent name for the property located at the north east corner of Flamingo Road and Las Vegas Boulevard. Prior to its formal opening as Barbary Coast on March 2, 1979, neighboring property The Flamingo had an purchase opportunity when it was a seedy motel, but declined... gulp.... talk about a missed opportunity. As a result, the Coast Casino company bought the motel and built upwards, blocking the view of the Flamingo for north bound travelers on the Strip. Nearly thirty years later, in 2007, owners Boyd Gaming traded Barbary Coast to Harrah's Entertainment in exchange for similarly sized Stardust adjacent parcel Westward, Ho! property, which was earmarked for their post-Stardust Echelon Place project. None of this came to fruition, but Harrah's promptly changed the name of Barbary Coast to Bills Gamblin Hall and Saloon (in honor of William 'Bill' Harrah, founder of Harrah's Entertainment) in February 2007.

After years of rumors, Caesars Entertainment announced in late 2012 that Bill's Gamblin' Hall and Saloon will close on February 4, 2013 for a year-long renovation into a "lifestyle boutique hotel and club" with a 2014 opening as Gansevoort. The Gansevoort name was abruptly discarded when Massachusetts gaming regulators discovered connection between Gansevoort top brass and the Russian mafia. Caesars Entertainment announced in January 2014 that the hotel would be called The Cromwell and feature restaurant by TV personality Giada Di Laurentiis and rooftop pool club by nightclub impresario Victor Drai.

The Cromwell soft opening is currently scheduled for April 2014.
